I hope everyone is having a happy new year. I was hoping that the situation could have been resolved by now, but I’m sure things will be able to work out great soon enough.
In the meantime there are technical tasks that I can be working on, and there are a lot of articles that I want to make. I’m going to start digging into everything again right away. It would be nice to have assistance with such tasks, but I can make due for the moment.
A big technical task that I want to implement very soon is to make NOITV be entirely able to be updated remotely. It has a backend that I have custom-built that has powerful capabilities, but for the time being that system can only be updated locally. I will start implementing chunks of programming soon which will allow for the remote updating of that website, and in the meantime there are shortcuts that I can use.
I also want to create a “mobile” version of NOITV (and also of this website Sketchspace) which will use an entirely different interface that is optimized for use with tablets and cell phones. I’ve put off doing that because I was hoping that the resolution would have happened and there would have been clarity and resources available for easily delegating that task to people who would be interested in helping.
For the time being NOITV is “more or less” readable on cell phones, however I’ve noticed that this site Sketchspace and Open Minded Realism essentially do not work in that environment at all! So I should really remake those interfaces soon to at least be “more or less” readable on cell phones for the time being. Also I intent to port key articles from Open Minded Realism into NOITV and then take down OMR altogether, as I’ve mentioned before.
I also want to revamp the desktop browser design of NOITV to make it wider and more professional looking. I will do that when the mobile version of the website is implemented.
I’m so curious about what is going on in the situation. I hope things are ok. As I’ve always mentioned over the years I’m very concerned about the potential of people trying to claim that they are recruiting people and configuring organizations “for me” or claiming that their organizations will be involved with mine. As I’ve always explained, it is crucial that there is clarity first and foremost, and then I can decide on the configuration of my organizations. I’m sure that just about everyone is able understand why it needs to be that way.
Everything is well set up for me to be focusing on my tasks in the meantime, so I will constantly be very productive. I hope all is well!
[ UPDATE— Aye! I just noticed that the time zone was set to be the default on WordPress, which was making my posting times and dates be off! Was it always that way with this site? The WordPress updated itself with a new system recently, I wonder if it reset that setting then. Also, when I just updated the setting it did not fix the dates and times on the previous posts! Tsk.. I need to look into that. It would be a big hassle to fix that unless some sort of a plugin exists that can do that. That is an example of a typical sort of a problem that can happen due to my not receiving input from others about things. Most people know that I definitely do value what people think. ]
